Street harassment is a form of sexual harassment that consists of unwanted comments, wolf-whistles, "catcalling", and other actions by strangers in public areas. According to Chilean President Michelle Bachelet, "violence and harassment against women and girls in public spaces remains a largely neglected issue, with few laws or policies in place to address it." ==Definition== According to the non-profit organization Stop Street Harassment, street harassment is "unwanted comments, gestures, and actions forced on a stranger in a public place without their consent and is directed at them because of their actual or perceived sex, gender, gender expression, or sexual orientation."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.stopstreetharassment.org/about/what-is-street-harassment/ )〕 In much of South Asia, the term is called "eve teasing". The non-profit organization also provides examples for street harassment, some of which include "unwanted whistling, leering, sexist, homophobic or transphobic slurs, persistent requests for someone’s name, number or destination after they’ve said no, sexual names, comments and demands, following, flashing, public masturbation, groping, sexual assault, and rape". According to the author of “A Radical Reshaping of the Law: Interpreting and Remedying Street Harassment”, Tiffanie Heben, there are three levels of street harassment. The levels are severe, moderately severe, and least severe. The level "severe" includes an unfamiliar man making "sexually explicit reference to a woman’s body or to sexual activities", or calling out profanities based on racial, ethnic, gender, or sexuality. The level "moderately severe" includes an unfamiliar man making "sexual innuendos", and the level "least severe" includes making gestures towards women in a manner that is "not political in nature". Street harassment can also be known as catcalling. Catcalling is defined a whistle, shout, or a sexual move as a person walks by another person. Catcalling can happen almost anywhere. It can happen at school, on a bus, or even on social media.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/15388220.2014.949377#.VkKSn6NdHIU )〕
